It was indeed my favourite and only phone brand. I always felt it was the smoothest user experience was with Nokia (well, at least true for till 5 years ago). But time changes, hardward no longer is the winning factor, rather the software in it. And it is not catching up fast enough with Google and Apple.
I was browsing at news and saw Nokia came up with these concepts phones. Well, not a bad strategy, i mean not everyone needs or use a smart phone. There are still other markets to go for and these are actually pretty fun-looking for mid-range prices phone.
- The Aroma Phone
Apart from the novelty that it doesn't have a hard-case body, it also emits aroma when u flip.. cool isn't it?
- Shape Shifter
Obviously this and the next selling point are morphing and shifting shapes into different things like watch, or some accessories.
Quite cool, but i prefer the Aroma phone design..
- Kinetic
Some movement oriented phone, basically stands up when it rings and if u dun wanna pick up push it down. Fun, but good enough only as deskphone replacement, i mean who want that chunk of thing below as mobile right?
Well, obviously they need creativity to beat iPhone and Android era now... I am still using nokia, but pretty determine to get the white unicorn iPhone 4 if it ever comes out... I mean how can a gay never try grindr at least once in his life? =p

Okay, this is really an ex, N82-Dragonfly
I used to have a N82, it is definitely my favourite nokia phone. It may not be powerful compare to times like this, but it was definitely the best for its time. Great camera and fastest GPS i ever had experience with. And its plainly on GPS signal without 3G.
If they really make it, I might seriously consider getting it as secondary phone. Just like ex-es i guess... there will only be a chance to be taken back, when something has changed, more precisely has improved.
There is nothing wrong to consider or accept the ex-es if it/he has changed and improved...provided you still love it/him..
ReplyDeleteHaha... i do have special feelings on my Ex, afterall it was my First (camera phone), and the affection was also by far the Deepest as its characteristics (phone functionality) was great.
ReplyDeleteoh I saw all this picsy before in an email! =DDD so pretty and cool right?
ReplyDeleteMost of the time, concept phones will stay just... concept phones.
ReplyDeleteSome ex can be crappy...Nokia has not been successful for many years now together with Motorola
ReplyDeleteAre those gadgets already in the market ?
ReplyDeleteJared, yup yup.. if the dragonfly is rel i might..
ReplyDeleteWill, well the green thing does a bit unrealistic..
thompson, haha... dun be so sensitive with ex-es la.. lol.. cheers man.. ;)
CX, no.. like william say its just concept phone..
I used to like Nokia, until their designs just stopped appealing to me.. Then came Sony Ericsson.. And now HTC. I've a knack for big, squarish phones. And i'm anti-iPhone! Grindr is already available on Android, and soon to be on Blackberry lor :P
